    1957 Corvette Oil Pan Pictures







    I believe this may be the original pan off 57 Corvette #3963 ~ believed to be the first RPO 684 production car. The picture was taken at the National SCCA Points Race at Watkins Glen on September 20, 1957. The car was very successful during 1957. Per the driver Bark Henry he over-revved and lost the short block during practice and received appropriate kidding.

    When I bought the car it had what appeared to be a 57 pass pan with a temperature sending unit.

    John;

    Can't help you with that, but I would like to congratulate you on the excellent cover story article about your 56 SR in the latest Corvette Fever magazine, If I recall right, they took the photos here in Orlando area during the Winter Meet last January. I hope others who may have access to the September 09 issue will check it out. Well worth the read.

      Stu, John's SR1 was also on the Restorer cover and great article by Vinnie. It's a very nice car with some very unique/one off features. Gary....
